Urine absorbent pad

Abstract

A disposable urine trap in the form of a foldable pad that envelops the male genitalia and closes around the organ to form a barrier that prevents urine from escaping the trap. The pad includes an asymmetric pair of wings that are separated by a gap and attached to the main body of the pad. The first wing is preferably rectangular in that the distal angles are substantially right angles with parallel side edges and a perpendicular distal edge, and has a length that exceeds a length of a second wing, which is terminates so that the distal edge of the second wing is angled to form an obtuse and an acute angle with respect to its generally parallel sides.

I claim: 
     
       1. A male urine trap, comprising:
 an inner fluid transmissive layer, an absorbent layer, and a fluid impermeable layer forming a flexible pad, the pad including: 
 a main absorbent region; 
 first and second spaced apart wings depending from the main absorbent region, the first wing including an outer side edge, and inner side edge, and a distal edge, the inner side edge including a first triangular void adjacent a juncture of the first and second wings, and the second wing includes an inner side edge, an outer side edge, and a distal edge, where the distal edge forms an acute angle with the second wing's outer side edge and an obtuse angle with the second wing's inner side edge, and a second triangular void at the juncture of the first and second wings, where the first and second triangular voids form a diamond shaped recess; 
 an attachment for securing the second wing to the first wing; and 
 whereby a compartment is formed, between the main absorbent region and a combination of the first and second wings, by overlapping the first and second wings, the compartment having a first entrance through the diamond shaped recess, and an opening along adjacent coincident side surfaces of the folded first and second wings; 
 a waistband adhesive strip on the main absorbent region; and 
 wherein the second wing is folded over the first wing and the distal edge of the second wing is parallel to and adjacent the outer side edge of the first wing, and 
 wherein the main absorbent region is folded over the distal edges of the first and second wings.
